Answer:

A) 18%

Step-by-step explanation:

Find percent change by subtracting to find the change, then put that over the original amount and times by 100.

79 - 65 is 14

change/original is

14/79

= .177

Then times 100 to make the decimal into a percent.

0.177×100 is 17.7%

which rounds to 18%.

For the month of November in a certain​ city, 88​% of the days are cloudy. Also in the month of November in the same​ city, 54​%
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

There is a 61.36% probability that a randomly selected day in November will be foggy if it is cloudy.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have these following probabilities:

An 88% probability that the day is cloudy.

An 54% probability that the day is both foggy and cloudy.

What is the probability that a randomly selected day in November will be foggy if it is cloudy​?

This is the percentage of days that are cloudy and foggy divided by those that are cloudy. So:

P = \frac{0.54}{0.88} = 0.6136

There is a 61.36% probability that a randomly selected day in November will be foggy if it is cloudy.

We have to find the expected value for the PlayBall lottery. 
The price of the ticket = $1
Prize amount = $250
If a player wins, he will be winning $249 as the price is not paid back along with the prize amount. He is spending $1, getting back $250, so the net amount he is getting back is $249.

Now we have to find the probability of winning and losing.

Number of letters from A to T = 20
Number of digits from 0 to 9 = 10

Probability of picking up the same letter that was picked on that day = 1/20
Probability of picking up the same number that was picked on that day = 1/10

Thus, the Probability of picking up the same letter and same number that was picked on that day = \frac{1}{20}* \frac{1}{10}= \frac{1}{200}

Thus, the probability of winning = 1/200

The probability of losing = 1- \frac{1}{200}=\frac{199}{200}

The expected value E for the PlayBall lottery will be:

E= \frac{1}{200}(249)- \frac{199}{200}(1) \\  \\ 
E= \frac{1}{4}  \\  \\ 
E=0.25

Thus, the option C gives the correct answer

The difference of the square of a number and 24 is equal to 5 times that number. Find the negative solution.
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

the "negative solution" is -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the number by n.

Then n^2 - 24 = 5n

We rewrite this in standard quadratic form:

n^2 - 5n - 24 = 0

This factors as follows;  (n + 3)(n - 8) = 0

The roots are n = -3 and n = 8.  Thus, the "negative solution" is -3
